Post-Game Analysis
-
Boston College Eagles
- Strategy:
The Eagles are a team that thrives on a strong defensive structure and capitalizing on offensive opportunities, particularly on the power play. They are very skilled offensively and try to maintain possession of the puck in the offensive zone. They are very strong in the third period, outshooting opponents and scoring a lot of goals. They make quick, simple plays and try to get pucks out of the defensive zone quickly. They are extremely disciplined as well, and make good, timely passes to help them generate scoring opportunities. They are very good at killing penalties, but are sometimes susceptible to letting up goals on the kill.
- Key Players:
- Ryan Leonard: A dynamic forward with a knack for scoring crucial goals, especially on the power play. He has a nose for the net, and plays a very physical game. He had a hat trick and two empty net goals this weekend.
- Teddy Stiga: A young, talented forward who scored the opening goal of the game on the power play. He has good hands and makes smart plays with the puck.
- James Hagins: A highly touted prospect and a very skilled player. He is a solid passer with good vision.
- Jacob Fowler: An outstanding goaltender with a .973 save percentage over the last few games. He's very calm, makes smart positional saves, and good rebound control.
- Aidan Hreschuk: A defenseman who plays a lot of minutes and is very good on the defensive side of the puck.
- Drew Fortescue: A defenseman who excels in the +/- stat, a defensive powerhouse on the team.
- Gabe Perreault: A skilled player with good speed and vision.
- Will Vote: A key contributor to the power play unit, and a strong scoring presence.
- Oscar Yell Vage: A very skilled player with good chemistry with other players.
-
Boston University Terriers
- Strategy:
The Terriers are an offensively potent team that relies on their power play to generate scoring opportunities. They are a very talented team that plays with a lot of pace. They struggled to score 5-on-5 goals in this game, and at times were making mental errors that caused turnovers. Their strategy is focused on getting pucks into shooting areas and getting players to crash the net. They're disciplined in their structure, especially through the neutral zone, but try to establish their own offensive zone. They're susceptible to giving up short-handed goals and getting caught out of position. Their penalty kill is not up to par.
- Key Players:
- Quinn Hudson: A versatile forward who leads the team in points, but is a well rounded player.
- Cole Hudson: A highly skilled defenseman who is a threat offensively as well as defensively. He was the leading scorer in the World Juniors for defenseman.
- Lane Hutson A very quick and talented offensive player, with a good shot.
- Shane LaChance: The sophomore captain of the team. He is a power forward who can be a wrecking ball when he gets going.
- Matt Caponi: A transfer who is a key player for the Terriers, especially on the offensive end.
- Egor Yegorov: A new goaltender for the Terriers who showed a lot of poise in this game.
- Ryan Green: A key offensive threat with a hot hand who had 8 shots on goal in the previous game.
- Devin Kaplan: A very quick player who is a key part of the offense.
- Tom Willander: A big physical player who is hard to play against.
- Dylan Peterson An aggressive player who plays hard in front of the net.
